A Survey of Major Biblical Doctrines: Eighth Edition

Evangelical Christian Doctrine. The very words have a negative connotation for many people, conjuring up thoughts of dull, boring, religious theory and study. That’s an unfortunate association. Doctrine – that which is believed and taught – is important because it provides a basis for faith, revealing what traditional Evangelical Christians believe and the basis for that belief. Doctrine is important also because what you believe affects the way you live and how you relate to others. Holding incorrect doctrine, or misinterpreting correct doctrine, has consequences. This book begins with the excellent seventeen-point Biblical Ministries Worldwide (BMW) Doctrinal Statement and builds on that foundation, expanding and explaining each of the points. (For the record, the author of this book is not affiliated with BMW.) Whether you’re an Evangelical Christian or just curious about their beliefs, you’re invited to come along on our journey as we explore the basics of what the Bible teaches on the key points of doctrine.
